Social/Family aspects of Climate Change
As I was thinking how to frame my question, I realized that one of my main roadblocks to doing more about climate change isn't practical, it's social. And social solutions are certainly not my forte. Anyway, here it is: How do I handle situations where my actions to lower MY carbon footprint impact my loved ones?
Examples:
I want to cut down car usage, but if my daughter walks to work (or even to a bus) she'll arrive sweaty in summer or cold and wet in winter, so I drive her more often than I'd like.
I hate heating a swimming pool with natural gas, but my wife finds water exercises easier on her body.
OK, and one about me: I want to switch to an electric car, but I love driving my 15 year-old stick-shift Mini Cooper. (And electric cars don't have stick-shift!)
Maybe this isn't really a question. Just to say that Climate change action isn't easy. What do you think?
